my horse box walks if there people fussing in the nxt stable but as soon as you go he stops now i can totally understand that it may be annoying if ur in the nxt stable but the yo ties him up which ok while she is there but she just goes in her house and leaves him there 4 houses that twice this week iv been up and hes been left tied up grr wat wud u do?
 
thats cruel to leave a horse tied up like that!! has she mentioned ne complaints from others or is it just her?? mayb shes thinking of other liveries and loosing money or not just a thought???
 
ditto that...

my horse does stress when folk around, when i go and he defo reduces BUT and if nobody around will stop

(hubby drove off and left me there and horse thought i was gone and he stopped box walking!!)
 
Couldn't the YO put him in a feed ball with some nuts in over the door when she fusses in the next stable or a few carrots to occupy him? He might just break the habit? If she has the time to tie him up then surely it would be worth a try

with box walking i've tried most things......... and have come to the conclusion that, this is what my horse does, it's not dangers nor does he pass on to others horses, just ignore it and this is want your YO should do aswell

My horse does it for my pleasure as he's happy too see me and wants to get on and DO
